BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

Field of Invention

The present invention relates to an automatic transmission for a vehicle. More particularly, the present invention relates to a planetary gear train of an automatic transmission for a vehicle that can improve power delivery performance and reduce fuel consumption at a low-speed driving.

Description of Related Art

Typically, multiple-shift mechanism of an automatic transmission is achieved by combining a plurality of planetary gear sets and a plurality of frictional elements. It is well known that when a planetary gear train realizes a greater number of shift speeds, speed ratios of the planetary gear train can be more optimally designed, and therefore a vehicle can have economical fuel mileage and better performance. For that reason, the planetary gear train that is able to realize more shift speeds is under continuous investigation.

Though achieving the same number of speeds, the planetary gear train has a different operating mechanism according to a connection between rotation elements (i.e., sun gear, planet carrier, and ring gear). In addition, the planetary gear train has different features such a durability, power delivery efficiency, and size depend on the layout thereof. Therefore, designs for a combining structure of a gear train are also under continuous investigation.

If the number of shift-speeds, however, increases, the number of components in the automatic transmission also increases. Therefore, mountability, cost, weight and power delivery efficiency may be deteriorated.

Particularly, since the planetary gear train having a number of components is hard to be mounted in a front wheel drive vehicle, researches for minimizing the number of components have been developed.

The information disclosed in this Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the shift processes of the planetary gear train according to various embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

First Forward Speed

Referring to FIG. 3, the first clutch C1 and the first brake B1 are operated and the dog clutch DC stays at the neutral state at the first forward speed 1ST.

As shown in FIG. 4, since the dog clutch DC stays at the neutral state, the torque of the input shaft IS is not input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 and is input to the first rotation shaft N1 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the first clutch C1. In addition, the third rotation shaft N3 is stopped by operation of the first brake B1. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a first shift line SP1 and D1 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Second Forward Speed

The first brake B1 that was operated at the first forward speed 1ST is released and the second brake B2 is operated at the second forward speed 2ND.

In this case, since the dog clutch DC stays at the neutral state, the torque of the input shaft IS is not input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 and is input to the first rotation shaft N1 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the first clutch C1. In addition, the fourth rotation shaft N4 is stopped by operation of the second brake B2. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a second shift line SP2 and D2 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Third Forward Speed

The second brake B2 that was operated at the second forward speed 2ND is released and the dog clutch DC is operably connected to the third transfer gear TF3 at the third forward speed 3RD.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the first rotation shaft N1 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the first clutch C1 and is input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 through the third transfer gear TF3. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a third shift line SP3 by the gear ratios of the first transfer gear TF1 and the third transfer gear TF3, and D3 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Fourth Forward Speed

If the dog clutch DC is released from the third transfer gear TF3 and is operably connected to the second transfer gear TF2 at the third forward speed 3RD, the fourth forward speed 4TH is achieved.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the first rotation shaft N1 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the first clutch C1 and is input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 through the second transfer gear TF2. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a fourth shift line SP4 by the gear ratios of the first transfer gear TF1 and the second transfer gear TF2, and D4 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Fifth Forward Speed

If the dog clutch DC returns to the neutral state and the second clutch C2 is operated at the fourth forward speed 4TH, the fifth forward speed 5TH is achieved.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the first rotation shaft N1 and the third rotation shaft N3 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the first clutch C1 and the second clutch C2. Therefore, the first and second planetary gear sets PG1 and PG2 become direct-coupling state, the rotation shafts form a fifth shift line SP5, and D5 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Sixth Forward Speed

The first clutch C1 that was operated at the fifth forward speed 5TH is released and the dog clutch DC is operably connected to the second transfer gear TF2 at the sixth forward speed 6TH.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the third rotation shaft N3 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the second clutch C2 and is input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 through the second transfer gear TF2. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a sixth shift line SP6 by the gear ratios of the first transfer gear TF1 and the second transfer gear TF2, and D6 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Seventh Forward Speed

If the dog clutch DC is released from the second transfer gear TF2 and is operably connected to the third transfer gear TF3 at the sixth forward speed 6TH, the seventh forward speed 7TH is achieved.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the third rotation shaft N3 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the second clutch C2 and is input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 through the third transfer gear TF3.

Therefore, the rotation shafts form a seventh shift line SP7 by the gear ratios of the first transfer gear TF1 and the third transfer gear TF3, and D7 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Eighth Forward Speed

If the dog clutch DC returns to the neutral state and the second brake B2 is operated at the seventh forward speed 7TH, the eighth forward speed 8TH is achieved.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the third rotation shaft N3 through the first transfer gear TF1 by operation of the second clutch C2, and the fourth rotation shaft N4 is stopped by operation of the second brake B2. Therefore, the rotation shafts form an eighth shift line SP8 and D8 is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

Reverse Speed

The first brake B1 is operated and the dog clutch DC is operably connected to the second transfer gear TF2 at the reverse speed REV.

In this case, the torque of the input shaft IS is input to the fourth rotation shaft N4 through the second transfer gear TF2, and the third rotation shaft N3 is stopped by operation of the first brake B1. Therefore, the rotation shafts form a reverse shift line RS and REV is output through the second rotation shaft N2 that is the output element.

The planetary gear train according to various embodiments of the present invention can achieve eight forward speeds and one reverse speed by combining two planetary gear sets PG1 and PG2 being the simple planetary gear sets with three transfer gears TF1, TF2, and TF3 being the externally-meshed gears, four frictional elements C1, C2, B1, and B2, and the dog clutch DC.

Since the first, second, and third transfer gears TF1, TF2, and TF3 and the dog clutch DC are used, at least one planetary gear set and two frictional elements may be removed, compared with the planetary gear train. Therefore, manufacturing cost may be curtained by reducing the number of components.

In addition, optimum gear ratios may be set due to ease of changing gear ratios by using the first, second, and third transfer gears TF1, TF2, and TF3 as well as the first and second planetary gear sets PG1 and PG2. Since the gear ratios can be changed according to target performance, starting performance, power delivery performance and fuel economy may be improved.

In addition, two frictional elements or one frictional element and the dog clutch are operated at each shift-speed, and one frictional element is released and another friction element is operated or only the dog clutch changes its operating state so as to shift to a neighboring shift-speed. Therefore, shift control condition is fully satisfied.
